Saturday morning

Saturday morning and time to get up! I miss it being light in the morning, but the coffee is warm, so all is good.

I have one more weekend after this of working at the flea market. It gets cold up here in New England so they will close here for the season. I don't know what I'll do for cash after that, but I trust in the Lord to find me something.

I am a coupon shopper, been doing it for about 30 years. About 5 years ago I started taken all my extras to the Flea market and selling it all there. It has worked out very well me. I wish I have started doing this when my girls were small it would have made a big difference in our lives.

 



This picture was taken this past September, it give you an idea as to what I do. I don't do this to get rich. This is how I pay for the little extras in life. (like car insurance, and the cable bill)

Morning

The best part of the day for me is the morning. I love the quiet and the feeling that you have the whole day ahead of you. That first cup of coffee in the morning. Everything is possible in the morning.

Today I have to go over to Nancy's and run quicken, than off to the shop to see if anythings need to be done.

Well I just woke Joe, and got him off to work. So now it is time for me to check face book and find out where today is going to take me.

The Anger

On Sept. 1st 2011, I was kind of forced to resign from my job of 10 years.  I like to call it my early retirement.  I was a little bitter about it and scared about my future.  Lets face it now is not a good time to be unemployed in the U.S.  

I felt very betrayed by a person I thought was a close friend. They could have saved my job at anytime, but chose not too. I really have no one to blame but myself for being loyal to this person. It's funny you know, I thought I had forgiven this person, but as I write this I find that the anger is still there.

I have never told this person and never will. (This person is not a good listener, the type that is only thinking about what they can say next) So maybe if I write it down I can get over it and on to my next adventure!

So here goes

At anytime you could have stepped up to the plate and told Mr. Cappa that you told me to do it. (you knew I would not throw you under the bus without your say so)

You strung me along with this new shop, that I was going to help you build. Knowing full well you weren't going to keep any of your promises. (my fault again because after being with you for 10 years I should have known)

Did you every stop and think about what I was losing by protecting you? Your retirement is in the bag, mine is not. So thank you for your hand out and helping me to feel small.

You can put any kind of spin on this that you want, but everyone who was there knows the truth and you can't change that. THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE.

Now I have said it, put it out there and it is time for me to move on. My life is an adventure full of ups and downs.
